Can't say i'm a fan of the 'flat' bodyside textures....makes them look more like artwork than MSTS models.

Try adding a bit of noise, or grime.....anything to break up the monotony? :P

How much grime and noise do want adding, they have a certain amount on already and in reality these locos are kept reasonable clean :)

Well not grime as such - basically something to break up the 'one colour' used on the sides. Have a look at tims 40s and EH2 pack to see what I mean...clean, but includes a lot of shading, and looks far more realistic for it.

its not possible to use the effect that tim has used on his 40's on the 37's due to way they are mapped, i did try but things didnt line up.

These together with the already released 40's 31's and the up and coming 86's are some of the nicest skins I've seen. I gave these two tractors a run up the Cambrian 2 last night top and tailed EH2 Inter City 2F's very nice....
